As of July 19th 2021 - how well are tourists getting into London by Cartoonist
Does anyone have thoughts / opinions on the current state of tourists and tourism in London right now? Can people arriving from the U.S. who are fully vaccinated expect delays upon arrival? If so, what to expect? I monitor the news and of course the ...
I'm pretty much in agreement with you on all points.I was never an "anti-vax" person, just rely on keeping healthy and I never even catch a cold really....but it's common sense to get the jab against this specific scourge. Here in ... Read More

Can A U.S. citizen apply for dual citizenship in Finland? by Cartoonist
I am requesting information as to applying for dual citizenship in both Finland and America. As I near retirement age I want to travel more and am wondering if this is possible nowadays. I am also assuming to be considered an expat in any sense, a ...
Thanks Cynic....this is what I was trying to verify. I work electronically, and let's say I get paid overseas (if in the UK or Finland).....so being a dualie, I assume I had better file tax papers before April 15 every year....right? I just ... Read More

Wonder if anyone can recommend reasonable hotels near London's west end with decent rates for rooms that have ensuite bathroom for one person (nothing fancy, just me!). Seeking quotes for one day and / or a week? Curious because so many of the ...
BTW, link goes to a booking site, correct? I just tested the page's booking feature which went to a different hotel. Is Premier in London? Read More

Calling To U.S. From U.K. by Cartoonist
Are there still "call centres" in the U.K. that allow you to call back to the states? And do stores still sell calling cards with minutes on them, so you can call on pay phones? Or are pay phones obsolete there?
Thanks to all of you! Daily Cartoon Read More

Thanks Fred. This will settle my curiousity on the subject. If I knew EVERYONE had Skype or G+, I know now, that free calls are also doable. I appreciate this forum and glad we kept this civilized! Read More

ok, but to call a business contact in the U.S. using your method, what if they don't have Googgle, or skype? I am refering to verbal communications to a specific phone number - for instance an editor in NYC or LA etc....if they don't have ... Read More

appreciate knowing this....free is good but cannot guarantee every call back to the states in that manner so best to stick with basically using a card, punching in required numbers using a public (pay) phone and go that route.,....just wanting to be ... Read More

Thanks for the recent replies. HaHa "suck it and see".....I thought that was an Aussie phrase. Is it also associated with Brit sayings? I don't use Skype because not everyone has it and those that could, just don't care for the ... Read More
